The purpose of these kinds of aliases is to disassociate the human’s email address from the service. Alias services like this aren’t designed to enable multiple signups for a single service. Otherwise it would quickly be a tool abused by spammers, blocked by services, and useless for people.
I completely agree and I would like to add one more thing. The way simple login responded to this issue was very nice. They could have been a whole lot more aggressive about this.
So I can’t even use two different Lemmy accounts on different instances? Or have a public social media account and a ‘business’ one I use to share my own music or something? My dual-boxing MMO accounts? There’s a lot of use cases for 2 emails/accounts at the very least.
Technically true but they belong to the same ‘service’ and because of the vague policy, I dont know whether that means they’d suddenly terminate my account.

Those are different websites though.

Lemmy does not offer any sort of SSO so I wouldn’t worry about it.
I don’t know what the limit is, but I have about 7 reddit accounts.
